Abstract

La présente invention concerne un procédé de fabrication d'une électrode, une électrode fabriquée par ce procédé, un ensemble membrane-électrode comprenant cette électrode, ainsi qu'une pile à combustible comprenant cet ensemble membrane-électrode. Ledit procédé de fabrication d'une électrode comprend les étapes consistant à : préparer une composition de formation d'électrode par mélange d'un catalyseur avec un ionomère; appliquer une énergie acoustique basse fréquence à la composition de formation d'électrode pour effectuer un mélange vibratoire résonant de manière à appliquer l'ionomère sur la surface du catalyseur; et appliquer la composition de formation d'électrode pour fabriquer une électrode. Le procédé de fabrication d'une électrode applique l'ionomère sur la surface du catalyseur avec une épaisseur nanométrique pour augmenter la dispersibilité du catalyseur, etc., ce qui facilite le mélange. De plus, le procédé de fabrication d'une électrode répartit uniformément l'ionomère sur la surface du catalyseur pour augmenter le taux d'utilisation du catalyseur et de l'ionomère, ce qui permet d'améliorer diverses performances et d'augmenter l'efficacité de couplage entre le catalyseur et l'ionomère, de telle sorte que la durabilité est améliorée.
